Website SILO Architecture for SEO

SILO Architecture is a kind of website structure that can be applied in websites for the sake of optimizing it for Search engines.

If Silo is applied correctly in any website then according to statistics that website will start getting higher rankings in search engine results.

Silo Architecture uses the concept of grouping posts and articles that belong to same category, together.

If your blog is about any single category of topic then you can keep writing your articles without labeling the category but most of the websites and blogs write articles in different categories, users may or may not be interested in reading articles belonging to all categories. If we can present pages that are dedicated to a certain label or category Eg: Computers and Electronics, Money Making, Digital Marketing etc.

Stacking Posts of same category together in one page and providing easily navigable url of that page in the home page, top menu will let users in finding topics of their choice easily.

Sometimes we use information like Our Services in our website and Our Services can be further classified into sub categories and in the pages of those sub categories there can be a list of pages belonging to respective category.
